Anthem Update 1.1.0 Goes Live Today, Introduces New Stronghold

April is almost coming to a close but BioWare has finally provided some news on this month’s Anthem update. Community manager Andrew Johnson revealed on Twitter that game update 1.1.0 would be released today and brings The Sunken, a new Stronghold, to players. More information will be coming in the official patch notes today.

Johnson also promised an update to the developer’s 90-day post-launch roadmap. That could mean a delay for some features like the Mastery Progression system and Shaper Storm into next month. Either way, expect the update to go live during today’s maintenance from 12 PM to 5 PM UTC.

Players will be able to catch the developer’s livestream (delayed from last week) and see the update in action at 8 PM UTC today. Whether loot drops, scaling issues, the lack of cosmetic armour and other problems plaguing the game since release will be addressed remains to be seen. Stay tuned for more details in the meantime though.

Our next game update (1.1.0) will be released tomorrow with the new Stronghold and various other game improvements and fixes. We will detail all of that out in our patch notes tomorrow, as well as give an update on the 90-Day calendar.

You’ll need to download the client update after the servers come back online following the scheduled maintenance. Be sure to follow @EAHelp for updates on that.https://t.co/bQIot3GBrK

If you’re doing the math, this means you’ll actually have a chance to try out the update before our livestream, which I believe is a first!

@Darokaz Has told me we have scheduled our livestream for 3pm CDT (U.S.)

I feel like I should reiterate that times are always subject to change with our livestreams, but that’s what we’re shooting for.
